what k03s is the best one?
« on: 14 August 2012, 20:54 »
Just wondered as I always see k04 turbos being brought up I.e. 001's 022 023

So just wondered what k03s is best I have a k03s-052 (it's got a large chamber at the end of the stateside if I could upload a pic I would)

So which one is best?

All the same internals, just different outlets. Apparently the silencer does something, still hear mine screaming away though lol
